Guinness World Records 2018

Children fight over these books in my classroomEspecially good for getting boys to read! Pristine condition

I've bought this for my 8 year old nephew for christmas as I don't think he's ever seen one before and he's about the right age to be amazed by a lot of the records and photos inside.Love the cover! Metallic 3D effect front and back - looks great. It's a good size - a big book in little hands and 255 pages (the last page is just an advert). It's as interesting as I remember it and that is 'even' taking the internet into consideration!Inside we are met with punchy facts/records - great photographs and visuals like infographics/graphs/tables.The GB of R has moved with the times here and we see subjects such as body modification - 3D printing and pollution and environment.Here's a quick look at the contents . . .EarthTallestAnimalsFastestSuperhumansLongestSuperheroesHeaviestRecordmaniaYoungestAdventuresHighestSocietyHighest EarningArts and MediaOldestSci-Tech and EngineeringMost ExpensiveTransportSmallestSportsEach topic has several sub sections and is jam packed with interesting facts - figures - graphs and photos.I've loved having a quick mooch through this book before santa wraps it! Very pleasantly surprised.

In a world of instant access to information via Google etc..... it is very nice to have a book like this, old style paper and pictures. So much information at your fingertips! There’s something nice about turning the pages and seeing the achievements listed in this book. Well worth the money!

For some reason I found the text this year particularly small - in some places very hard to read. However, overall a good book.

Bought to complete 25 year collection

My son loves this books. It's the best way to stimulate boys to read factual books, as it has fun, interesting topics that are illustrated so they are not all just pure text, which puts boys off reading. This is an annual priority on my sons Christmas present list. A lovely read for boys especially and an ideal way to stimulate boys to read independently. He fully recommends it for all children.

I got this for my grandson. Book in excellent condition. Quick delivery. Thank you so.Much.

Another gift for my 13 year old daughter that I got at a bargain price had to buy it from amazon's marketplace and wait a few extra days for delivery but really worth it for the price

Buchreihe sehr schön. War zum verschenken und leider die falsche Ausgabe ausgesucht. Deshalb zurück geschickt. Ergo lag nicht am Buch sondern unser Fehler gewesen.

En anglais

My sister's in this edition. Have to give it 5 stars!

Muy pequeño y las hojas son en blanco y negro, no se distingue adecuamente la información. No adecuado para niños.

Se lo regalé a mi hijo de 11 años por su cumpleaños y le encantó! No ha parado de leerlo es muy interesante y además practican inglés !!!
